Stags Head Hose

The paintings in the collection are a fantastic source of ideas and inspiration: £349

Dancers Hose
Dancer hose made in dress tartans. The split diamond design is also catered for.
£299 for the turned-over hose.
Children's hose catered for as well.
Children's
Children's hose are usually 2 diamond wide due to wee calf widths. The price will be dictated to buy the dimensions supplied. So tiny wee socks up to young teens will be between £150 to £200. However if younger people's dimensions fall into adult proportions for example 14" or above calf width, leg length 14" foot 10" or longer then adult prices will apply due to work involved.
